Maple Run: A Quiet, Affordable and Accessible Austin Enclave

Surrounded by Austin’s greenest parks and nature preserves, Maple Run offers comfortable, tranquil suburban living with the convenience of a quick 15-minute drive to downtown Austin.

Development in Maple Run began in 1979 and continued through 2006. While many homes date back to the mid-1980s, most have been updated or renovated with modern design features and amenities. All affordably priced, homes in this area range from 1,000 to 3,562 square feet in size.

Maple Run is close to everything downtown and South Austin have to offer, but it’s also conveniently located to a variety of both high-end and routine shopping opportunities just around the corner. Both the Shops at Arbor Trails and Escarpment Village, two popular shopping centers with a combined total of more than 55 stores and restaurants, are within 5 minutes of the neighborhood. In addition, four major shopping malls, Barton Creek Square Mall, Sunset Valley Market Fair, the Village at Westlake and Southpark Meadows can be reached within about 15 minutes. Together, these popular retail centers include more than 450 stores and restaurants.

“There’s a lot of seclusion, and there’s not a lot of traffic,” says Pamela Rogers. “So, it stood out for me because of the proximity to downtown and the parks,” says Anne Kenna. “But it also stood out for me because it is very close to great shopping, and you don’t have to drive 30 minutes to do your daily shopping.”

Walking Distance to School and Austin’s Most Popular Parks

Not only is it easy to get downtown, but residents of Maple Run can also enjoy several family-friendly parks close by. Just minutes from Maple Run is an Austin gem, Dick Nichols Park. Covering more than 150 acres, the park is a popular spot among residents and is often busy with families picnicking, children playing in the water feature and playground, or bikers flying down the extensive paved trails that wind around the park. Locals enjoy the large swimming pool, toddler pool, softball fields, basketball courts, lighted tennis courts, a pavilion, barbecue grills and picnic tables.

Also nearby, Longview Park is just 5 minutes away with its 20 acres of green space, playground, basketball courts, picnic tables, and walking trails. Another neighborhood favorite, the 9-acre Karst Preserve, features water-formed caves and plenty of winding trails that give nature lovers the chance to explore, hike, and interact with rare native species.

In addition to the abundance of outdoor recreation, schools attended by Maple Run students include Boone Elementary (which is situated within the neighborhood), and Covington Middle School, Crockett High School and Bowie High School, all located close by.

“It’s the kind of neighborhood where everyone knows each other,” says Anne Kenna, who has lived in Maple Run for the past 7 years. “It’s a great mix of young people and older couples, but everybody has a great sense of community and openness.”

Suburban Tranquility Meets Urban Accessibility

Maple Run residents enjoy a tight-knit community and proximity to exceptional Austin schools. With downtown Austin just minutes away, Maple Run residents don’t have to travel far to enjoy that the all that the Music Capital of the World has to offer. Back at home, the community features a variety of family-friendly parks and preserves nearby, and for vacation or business travel, Austin-Bergstrom International Airport is a quick 25 minutes away.

“We’ve attracted such a diverse group to the community because it’s a safe neighborhood and everyone is so environmentally active,” said Pamela Rogers, a 10-year Maple Run resident. “With the trails, the creeks, the preserves, it’s just a beautiful, safe place to live.”
